Mumbai, Feb 9 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Indian stock market opened on a positive note on Tuesday with the key indices hitting new highs.
The BSE Sensex touched an all-time high of 51,606.25 and the Nifty50 on the National Stock Exchange a record high of 15,197.80 points as healthy buying was witnessed in oil and gas and energy stocks.
The indices, however, later trimmed gains and were trading marginally.
Around 9.55 am, Sensex was trading at 51,415.41, higher by 66.64 points or 0.13 per cent from its previous close of 51,348.77.

Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst with Deen Dayal Investments, said: "The markets have continued their northward trajectory this morning and we are very close to the 15,200 target. While a pause at these levels cannot be ruled out, the overall trend for the Nifty remains positive and we should target 15500 as the next level of resistance."
